When the lights were dim
And the night crawled back
I made a silent whimper
The hands were rough
The face tough
Violent like a hurricane in winter
I tried to feel this in the best way I knew how
Sunshine is madness, I can't go back now
When the lights were dim
And the night crawled back
I made a silent whimper
The hands were rough
The face tough
Violent like a hurricane in winter
If the days were young I'd follow those
Little signs that life would turn me back around
Now that I'm stone, blood and bone
I follow through til the clocks break down
And in the end, it wasn't even fun
Oh god, I'm sorry
It wasn't even fun
Oh god, I'm so heavy on the wires
Felt so heavy on the wires
When the lights were dim
And the night crawled back
I made a silent whimper
The hands were rough
The face tough
Violent like a hurricane in winter
When the lights were dim
And the night crawled back
I made a silent whimper
The hands were rough
The face tough
Violent like a hurricane in winter
The Manchester band's latest is the kind of ear candy that’s sweet and satisfying but never cloying, the product of Madchester exuberance, endurance, and tact. Bandcamp Album of the Day Oct 11, 2021
There’s a mighty cinematic sweep in the songs on the latest from Badlands, the big and imposing orchestration with dreamlike vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 27, 2022
The sound of “NOW! 2073” is also the sound of 1983: laser-like minimalist electropop that flirts with coldwave and dance music. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 4, 2021
